1. Types of Use

Urban Use: Ideal for getting around the city - Lightweight and agile boards perfect for cruising, going to the bar, restaurant, or work - Equipped with longboard-style wheels - Suitable for smooth surfaces. The main models in this category are the Stoke and the Onirique.

All-Terrain Use: Ideal for off-the-beaten-path adventures - 6, 7, or 8-inch diameter wheels - Ride on trails, in forests, or on uneven surfaces. All-terrain models include the Diablo (in Carbon and Bamboo versions), and the Renegade, as well as the GTR2 Carbon and Bamboo. These skateboards can also be equipped with a street conversion kit to get the feel of a longboard, except for the Renegade Diablo, which is exclusively designed for demanding all-terrain riding.

Knowing these distinctions will help you choose the Evolve electric skateboard that best suits your needs.

2. Range

The range of your Evolve skateboard depends on the type of wheels, the user's weight, and the riding style. Make sure the board you choose has sufficient range for your daily commutes. If your commutes are long, prioritize skateboards like the Diablo, the GTR2 or the Renegade. Conversely, if your daily commutes are rather short, opt for skateboards such as the Stoke or the Onirique.

3. Ride Experience

A spec sheet can tell you the top speed, range, and weight of a board, but it doesn't tell you how maneuverable it is, how smooth the ride is, or how easy it is to control.

Wheels and trucks play a crucial role in overall ride performance. For example, the double kingpin trucks that Evolve uses on all their boards allow for smoother carving and sharper turns.

4. Board Weight

The weight of the board is crucial depending on your needs. A lightweight board like the Stoke or the Onirique is ideal if you are looking for a skateboard that is easy to transport, for example, to go to work. Conversely, a heavier board like the Diablo, the Renegade or the GTR2 is better for intensive use or for longer rides.

5. Versatility

The ability to change wheels enhances the ride experience. For example, Evolve conversion kits allow you to switch from all-terrain tires to street wheels in minutes, offering more flexibility.

6. Price

Prices for Evolve skateboards vary. More expensive models generally offer better performance, like our electric Mountainboard, the Renegade, for all-terrain riding, for example.

Investing in a high-quality model ensures durability and reliability.

7. Warranty and Spare Parts

When you are looking for an electric skateboard, it is important to consider elements such as the warranty (Evolve offers a 2-year warranty on the skateboard and a 1-year warranty on the battery), the availability of spare parts, and the level of customer support offered.

Each Evolve electric skateboard undergoes a meticulous quality control process to ensure you receive a perfect board, ready to ride.
